It's because we all share the same brain. Literally.
How could Normand let a phrase like "minority owner" breeze past without noticing?!
"Let's bring Katt Williams" hahahaha

Is that the Paulie Painting from the Sopranos. I need that.
Jerry's the best at just cutting through all the BS and just making things make sense. My favourite example of this is in the CICGC ep with Bill Burr when Bill mentions how loves that Cuba has classic 50s American cars everywhere and Jerry says "do you think they think of them as classics?" 😂
How did Mark ignore the “minority owner” pun with Cuban?!
Comedy needs to be a meritocracy, because if it isn't, then it isn't funny.

Absolutely.. I loved that show. He was completely different. Years ago I thought he was arrogant, but watching all those episodes, I had mad respect for him. His confidence and honesty were admirable. And what great interviews. I miss that show.
Low key, “bring in Katt Williams” 😂
I’m gay
Gotcha moments are worse when they're not even close to being accurate. List of non "white male" guests: Sarah Silverman Gad Elmaleh Chris Rock Tina Fey Sarah Jessica Parker George Wallace Aziz Ansari Kevin Hart Amy Schumer Miranda Sings Ali Wentworth Julia Louis-Dreyfus Steve Harvey Trevor Noah Barack Obama Kathleen Madigan Margaret Cho J.B. Smoove Kristen Wiig Cedric the Entertainer Dave Chappelle Ellen Degeneres Tracy Morgan Has Minhaj Kate McKinnon Eddie Murphy Jamie Foxx Mario Joyner Melissa Villasenor Bridget Everett Give me a fuckin' break. Of course, this will be seen as cynical, and his season lineups only got more diverse because of the backlash. Ya can't win.
"Yeahh, lets get into THAT!"
It's so funny how similar this is to that Bo Burnham podcast sketch
Love the Thief shirt, Sam.
Plus there are, like at least 8 black guys on CICGC, and a ton of women.

It's cuz these 2 are talking about a clip from nearly a decade ago when CICGC had only aired 22 episodes
Mark got this diner picture with the Feld
Yeah it’s a lame question and rightfully roasted but his interview clip about MeToo specifically is borderline psychotic.
I bet Mark Cuban kept a minority interest in the Mavs just so he could be "a minority". 😂
Seinfield is the hero we never knew we needed 😂

I dont think you're allowed to be a minority owner anymore
Sam and mark are like a couple , so cute
He talked about it Stern years ago. Colin Quinn mentioned it to him that he needs have some women and non-white comics on or the media was going start questioning him about.
This is an old interview, why it resurfaced again
i wish there was more diversity in the rest of the world, not just the west.
I think they missed a joke when Cuban turned into a minority owner
Sam is spot on about the counting thing.

I'd have used the actual term QUOTAS. Commies!
How many green eyed people were booked at the Comedy Cellar...and does it accurately represent their proportion in the overall population...what about red haired comedians? Or maybe people just intuitively recognize someone who is funny and that's what really matters.
Do you want diversity when it comes to your airline pilot or surgeon?

that was 9 years ago
2 clones chatting about diversity.
?… how can you say you valued diversity and also think that everybody should be hired on merit alone?
5:04 Mark Cuban actually got 3 billion!
The clip is 9 fucking years old. What are we doing?
Yet he's had Tracy Morgan, chappelle, Rock, JB Smoove, murphy, Harvey
The term “minority” owner triggers me! Lol, surprised people haven’t made a big deal out of this yet 🤦♂️
I agree that "keeping score" is just not based on anything good usually. It's too restrictive; yes you want to include, but liek when you start to be scared or concerned too much with numbers etc., then you're being repressive.
"Of course diversity's good" Is it?
First we have Mark Cuban arguing DEI with Musk. Then jext thing you know Cuban is a Minority Owner... I think you're going the wrong way with this one, Cuban!
They hate us cuz we’re funnier and smarter than them 😂
Going viral? Isn’t it an old clip
Sean Strickland for President
yeah, he's probably gonna come on
Fark, these guys are so salty about Kat Williams comments still LOL
Katt Williams 😂
Minority owner...owns minorities?
How did you guys not make a joke about being a Minority Owner, comedy!
Merit matters. The DEI stuff is a dumpster fire.
Diversity isn't good or bad, it's neutral. You take 5 white male comedians, and you remove one of them and put a black woman up there, and the improvement would come solely from the degree to which she's funnier than the guy you removed. Her blackness or womaness does NOTHING for the equation.

Diversity is neutral but forced diversity is always bad
Elon's argument sucked there because Cuban's talking about business strategy and Musk brings it to sports. Obviously the taller more athletic person is preferable for sports, but in a business/ academic world where acumen can come from anyone, favoring a specific race is racist. Plus dude grew up in apartheid South Africa and his dad ran an emerald mine. Musk being a 'man of the people' spouting 'common sense' is insane.

It is the best example. Why do you think hiring a subpar firefighter, cop, surgeon, or pilot for the sake of diversity would be okay, yet a basketball game is off-limits? No one's life is at risk if they mandate wnba players to play along with the NBA players. But, there are extreme risks when hiring mediocre employees that dictate how our society functions. The bottom line, just like sports a business is ran like a team and if you want the best results for everyone then they should hire the most qualified regardless of race, age, or who they want to sleep with.

Unfortunately the premise" the best person for the job vs diversity" is false. Hiring solely for diversity is a losing argument I agree. The sad reality is humans often can be very tribal, to the the detriment of those not of the tribe. Inclusion by mandate is not inclusion. Leadership based on lineage and legacy will fail eventually, because new, possibly better ideas, more efficient practices will be missed or overlooked. History has shown this over and over.In world war 2 the invasion of Normandy, it was a farmer who help to defeat the hedgerows so the allies could liberate Europe. Not a military historian, not a war college educated graduate. A farmer, a farmer with a more diverse background than his peers. There's nothing fair about being elite. Jerry is correct to say "are you funny? ( elite ) than I'm interested.

These guys are towing the line and saying "diversity is great of course", then start talking with their actual rational opinions. Whats funny about DEI people is from what side of their mouth say to see color and culture everywhere but then say every role in society needs to mirror the pie chart of society as if cultures don't have preferences and may value certain professions over others.

You missed the entire point. We should hire and promote people based on merit and accomplishment, and NOT based on race (a.k.a. racism) in any industry. If patterns emerge, oh well. That's how meritocracy works.
Is the truth how many black comedians are in he’s show??
Diversity is not important.
How about the president and vice president of the US, don't we want the best?
diversity is important but not at the expense of quality
these guys mean well but are VERY OFF...i don't consider myself woke per se, but it's just way too easy nowadays to dismiss things as woke and reverse racist bc you can play devils advocate with nearly any subject today with selective facts.....i love sam, but you cant say you're for diversity and it's good and then say you stop at counting? then how the hell does it change for the better if you dont see the stats??? the colorblind idea is a modernist understanding of race- as in it ignores the life experience as another race, it says all people are humans and the same ...the better post modern idea is to say even though someone is a different race and has completely different life exp, they are still worthy of respect- this highlights the difference of race and yet gives all races the respect they deserve.....my point in all this is, and i love mark too, but their understanding of what woke is is so reductive and simple they dont get how things that are meant to remedy inequality work....that's how you get idiots like musk saying quotas are racist, a juvenile gotcha idea.....what i will say is there should be a time and place to discuss these things and the interviewer read the room wrong....but the idea that seinfeld got mostly white comics or anything like this, has merit and should be examined if DEI is actually something you are for, Sam.....BTW the musk gotcha w the chinese lady basketball player is moot (basketball is a sport and demands players be of certain height and build usually to be competitive-- there is nothing intrinsically white about being a good comic- not the same thing---there are MORE comic that are white surely, but to say whites are better at comedy IS what would be racist FI you were to say that.....
"liberals want you to not see color" is a pretty dumb way to state the problem.

Ik this is a comedy podcast and its all mostly jokes but I just wanted to highlight that being outspokenly against DEI is kind of an ignorant position to take. Theres like centuries of systemic racism and sexism stacked against minorities, they don't have equal opportunities to succeed. We have to have things like it because otherwise we could continue to just never have diverse voices and talent.
This is such a stupid conversation. So let me get this straight. Adversity is good, but if you see a lack thereof you cannot say anything about it? Let's just pretend it's not happening and eventually it will go away? I don't know how you people think problems are solved. But I can tell you that ignoring them doesn't usually work. Jerry could have said, gee I never thought about it but let me think about it and see if you have a point.
Why can't you just say "yeah their perspective would be interesting.". Why do you have to get all mad. It's an indictment on your inner feelings.
Seinfeld was annoying back then, and he’s annoying now. Wish he would just go away….
DEI CAME FROM DEMOCRATS DON'T FORGET IT
merit
How boring
What a tiny portion of the interview regarded that topic and the guys are on about it for such a long time... Depressing
when you are a jew in hollywood 🤷♂
Agree w Jerry but HE"S NOT FUNNY.
Very odd question to ask Seinfeld considering minorities did not care nor watched his show because they could not relate. It’s a white guy’s show with white guy humor and experiences. Sorry but most minorities just don’t relate to that white dry humor. Culture and social upbringing’s determine humor. Very strange topic.
A lot of people actually are republicans but they don’t want to admit it, it’s just common sense
Diversity of what skin color or thought?
Funny doesn’t have a race or pronoun.
